LOL!!
To paraphrase what I said in some other thread, some if not most of the people who hate Calvinism on here because they think it rejects "God is love" are the nastiest and most condescending folks I've ever encountered on forums. If they really want to promote "God is love", perhaps they should make God's love more evident in their posts. Basically, Calvinists emotionally explode when we do not conform to their illusionary caste system.LOL!!
Finally your understand. Knowledge of your choice is just that.
OhhhhWe already knew you were a dinosaur Tom.
Caste system? I like it

One could say Leighton Flowers had great expertise in knowing about flowers THUS his last name. He knows how to show one the errors of T.U.L.I.P. Perhaps silly but maybe that was all set up for such a time like this?

Yes it’s why white and slick get all upset and throw out a bunch of ad homs and refuse to answer some of his questions that expose their erroneous position

Quite rightly. And the truth will set you free.

The TRUTH has already set me free ... that is why I follow HIM [John 14:6] ... it is the "gracelessness" of those that claim His name that tempts me to run back to the HONESTY of atheism.
"In necessariis unitas, in non-necessariis libertas, in utrisque caritas." - Rupertus Meldenius (1627)
("In Essentials Unity, In Non-Essentials Liberty, In All Things Charity")
Most claiming to be Christians seem unwilling to grant others either "liberty" or "charity" ... merely demanding "unity" to their flavor of truth!

I'm sure it has, I'm not arguing with you. And I surely hope you don't go back to being an Atheist if you ever were one. I hope you meant an unbeliever. But I guess they go hand in hand.
What is Atheism? A Lack of Belief in Gods
Atheism is the lack of belief in a god or gods. That’s it. Despite common stereotypes, atheists aren’t anti-religion, nor do they “worship” themselves instead of a god. Atheists don’t “hate God”. It’s impossible to hate something if you don’t believe it exists.

There is an expression "You can't un-ring a bell".
God choosing to save an atheist is like "ringing a bell" ... it cannot be "un-rung". I could choose to hate God (theoretically), but having met God I cannot return to believing that He does not exist.
Just for the record, YES, I was once an atheist ... technically, what I once believed and lived out was better described as "Nihilism" (Nihilism is a philosophy that rejects values and the valuation society places on people, objects, and life, and instead states that everything is meaningless.) ... God changed that.
The advantage of Atheism/Nihilism over "religion" is that atheists, as a rule, are searching for truth and merely ignorant of "metaphysical" realities because of personal bias for the empirical; while the "Religious" are typically zealously dogmatic in their proselytizing (you must believe exactly what I believe ... or else).
I miss the HONESTY while now embracing the TRUTH.
Yes

Thanks for explaining it to us.
Right, so what God foreknows is dependent on your choice. ASEITY VIOLATION
